The brick, even though the brick would end up traveling faster, it most likely has a larger surface area therefore it would have more air resistance.

Answer:

since brick is heavy than feather so at that time air resistance on brick will be more than the air resistance on feather

Explanation:

When an object will reach at its terminal velocity then the acceleration of that object will become ZERO

So at that moment of time we can say that net force on the object must be zero or the force of gravity due to its weight is counter balanced by air friction on the object

So when brick will reach to its terminal speed then we have

F_air = m_{brick} g

when feather will reach to its terminal speed

F_{air} = m_{feather} g

so here we can say that since brick is heavy than feather so at that time air resistance on brick will be more than the air resistance on feather

A rectangular loop of wire of width 10 cm and length 20 cm has a current of 2.5 A flowing through it. Two sides of the loop are
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

(a) 0.05 Am^2

(b) 1.85 x 10^-3 Nm

Explanation:

width, w = 10 cm = 0.1 m

length, l = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Current, i = 2.5 A

Magnetic field, B = 0.037 T

(A) Magnetic moment, M = i x A

Where, A be the area of loop

M = 2.5 x 0.1 x 0.2 = 0.05 Am^2

(B) Torque, τ = M x B x Sin 90

τ = 0.05 x 0.037 x 1

τ = 1.85 x 10^-3 Nm

The reaction energy of a reaction is the amount of energy released by the reaction. It is found by determining the difference in
solmaris [256]

Answer: the correct answer is 7.8026035971 x 10^(-13) joule

Explanation:

Use Energy Conservation. By ``alpha decay converts'', we mean that the parent particle turns into an alpha particle and daughter particles. Adding the mass of the alpha and daughter radon, we get

m = 4.00260 u + 222.01757 u = 226.02017 u .

The parent had a mass of 226.02540 u, so clearly some mass has gone somewhere. The amount of the missing mass is

Delta m = 226.02540 u - 226.02017 u = 0.00523 u ,

which is equivalent to an energy change of

Delta E = (0.00523 u)*(931.5MeV/1u)

Delta E = 4.87 MeV

Converting  4.87 MeV to Joules

1 joule [J] = 6241506363094 mega-electrón voltio [MeV]

4 mega-electrón voltio = 6.40870932 x 10^(-13) joule

4.87 mega-electrón voltio = 7.8026035971 x 10^(-13) joule

The 1.5-in.-diameter shaft AB is made of a grade of steel with a 42-ksi tensile yield stress. Using the maximum-shearing-stress
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

T = 0.03 Nm.

Explanation:

d = 1.5 in = 0.04 m

r = d/2 = 0.02 m

P = 56 kips = 56 x 6.89 = 386.11 MPa

σ = 42-ksi = 42 x 6.89 = 289.58 MPa

Torque = T =?

<u>Solution:</u>

σ = (P x r) / T

T = (P x r) / σ

T = (386.11 x 0.02) / 289.58

T = 0.03 Nm.

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

order   d> a = e> c> b = f

Explanation:

Pascal's law states that a change in pressure is transmitted by a liquid, all points are transmitted regardless of the form

      P₁ = P₂

Using the definition of pressure

      F₁ / A₁ = F₂ / A₂

      F₂ = A₂ /A₁   F₁

Now we can examine the results

a) F1 = 4.0 N A1 = 0.9 m2 A2 = 1.8 m2

     F₂ = 1.8 / 0.9 4

     F₂a = 8 N

b) F1 = 2.0 N A1 = 0.9 m2 A2 = 0.45 m2

    F₂b = 0.45 / 0.9 2

    F₂b = 1 N

c) F1 2.0 N A1 = 1.8 m2 A2 = 3.6 m2

    F₂c = 3.6 / 1.8 2

    F₂c = 4 N

d) F1 = 4.0N A1 = 0.45 m2 A2 = 1.8 m2

    F₂d = 1.8 / 0.45 4.0

    F₂d = 16 m2

e) F1 = 4.0 N A1 = 0.45 m2 A2 = 0.9 m2

   F₂e = 0.9 / 0.45 4

   F₂e = 8 N

f) F1 = 2.0N A1 = 1.8 m2 A2 = 0.9 m2

   F₂f = 0.9 / 1.8 2.0

   F₂f = 1 N

Let's classify the structure from highest to lowest

F₂d> F₂a = F₂e> F₂c> F₂b = F₂f

I mean the combinations are

 d> a = e> c> b = f
